Despite the euphoria and all the rhetoric that came with his 1 Malaysia concept, Najib, the newly minted P.M has one important duty to perform in order to convince the rakyat that indeed he has the political will to reform B.N in general and UMNO in particular.That one important obstacle that has been the bane of his asscesension is the illegitimate takeover of the Perak Govt by dubious means. Using the Judiciary to strengthen his takeover will only cause further anger with Najib's Govt. If his mantra which he postulated earlier is to change or be changed then he has to revert the mandate to to the people to elect a govt of their choice.Any thing less would be unacceptable to the people of Perak.
The convincing victory by the former M.B, Nijar at Bukit Gantang have clearly and irrevocably shown that the people want the status quo of the previous PKR govt to continue .If Najib continue to ignore the people's plea for the State assembly to be dissolved and fresh election be held for a new mandate, then he will be doing it at his own peril.
All his rhetoric and appeal to the public for the acceptance of his 1 Malaysia concept will have no meaning if the rakyat cannot even be given the mandate to elect a govt of their choice. He must accept his role in the illegal takeover of the Perak Govt and exercise Statemanship by correcting the wrong he had done. If not it is most likely the tenure of the new P.M would be the shortest and predictably he would be the last UMNO President to be the P.M
